"Who are you?" She stuttered.
Ethan was entranced with her angelic voice and her rosie scent.
"Ethan..Ethan Crane and you?" he said his voice deep. Theresa felt her knees go weak when she heard his masculine voice.
"Theresa Lopez-Fitzgerald," she replied trying not to smile to big but failing miserably.
'I think I'm falling in love..woah..where'd that come from you just broke up with your boyfriend...' Theresa chided herself silently.
"Why are you in my room?" Theresa asked her curiosity finally getting the better of her.
"I ...uh...Pilar said I could stay, I'll get my stuff out as soon as possible." Ethan said feeling like a complete and total idiot. No one had ever made him lose his breath or have a loss of words, not even Gwen, but the angel in front of him did just that, she knocked the wind out of him.
"No..." she answered a little to quickly. " My mom said you could stay and you can, I'll just stay in my little brothers room, I'm sure he wont' mind." Theresa recovered quickly flashing a nervous smile.
"Are you sure?" Ethan asked.
"Yeah," Theresa replied biting on her bottom lip.
Ethan noticed this action and wandered what it would be like to take her in his arms and kiss her soft and sweet lips.
Are you crazy, why would she want to be with you. You're going through a crisis and you need someone to lean on to understand you nothing else, you just want to be her friend.' he reasoned, but a little voice in the back of his head was screaming,' yeah right you want to be more than friends.'
"ETHAN?" Theresa said waving her hand in front of his face breaking him from his revere.
"UH?" he asked.
When Theresa's brown eyes made contact with his blue ones her stomach churned and her knees went week yet again. She almost forgot what she was gonna ask him.
"Are you gonna let go?" she said barely above a whisper to where Ethan had to strain to hear her.
Ethan was dumbfounded at her question but then he realized he was still holding her around the waist. "Oh..sorry." he said realizing her.
They immediately missed the warmth of each other’s embrace. "Suppers ready," Sheridan said coming up the stairs and breaking their intense gaze with each other.
"Ok...thanks." Theresa said smiling pensively. Sheridan noticed the looks passing between them. She groaned inwardly if she knew Ethan he would most likely try to come up with another plausible excuse say it was his problems. She couldn't wait to see Luis's action when she told him about her theory.
She didn't think he'd freak now that Ethan was found out not to be a Crane, but a Bennett. It still shocked her considering he was the only one who really cared for her, but now she had Luis, so she had someone to love her.
Ethan was still staring in the direction Theresa had walked off in. She sighed this was going to be a long night, but she couldn't wait to see what developed between them. She patted Ethan on the shoulder and they headed to the kitchen.
When they walked in Theresa and Ethan's eyes both went hazy and they both got dreamily looks on there faces. They were goners..they were totally, completely, utterly in love with each other, they just didn't know it...yet.
